Treasury Nominee Janet Yellen: Government Must ‘Act Big’ To Combat Pandemic | NBC News NOW
WHEN is President Biden going to sign an Executive Order for the $200 monthly increase for people on SSI and SSDI that he promised to increase?! It seems like everyone is being considered for extra income (even the minimum wage which has Nothing to do with Covid), but they are leaving out the Poorest people of all, the people that live at 125 % below the poverty level!! SSI and SSDI people cannot even afford food or medications that we need. We need our monthly income increased also.!!
Yellen ethic violations, she's received millions of dollars from corporations she's over seeing. Throw her out, impeach Biden
Ya pls print more, so that share market would rise and money would be transferred to elon or bezos pocket and its a good sign for recovery
Why won't NBC ask her will she will bail out Wall Street for betting and gambling wrong and then blame Wallstreetbets for it?
Janet Yellen recieved a million dollars from Citadel. She is in their pocket and leading the fight against retail. Do not let this happen. Contact every political representative you have and demand an end to this disgusting corruption.
FRAUD PRESIDENT FRAUD FED CHAIR
THEY SEIZED POWER AND NOW THE CORRUPTION IS IN YOUR FACE
Janet "HEDGE FUND" Yellen
The woke Biden administration is creating a nursing home at the white house it seems.
Conflict of interest
WE NEED RESCUE PLAN NOW. REPUBLICANS ARE CHEAP IT'S RIDICULOUS. 1.9 TRILLION IS NOTHING WE REALLY NEED ANOTHER 2.4 TRILLION NOW THAT'S ECONOMIC RECOVERY. WE ARE NOT CHEAP VOTER'S "ACT BIG NOW"
The only reason they push a
relief package is to STEAL MONEY.
It takes One Day, One Page to send $600.
Greedy politicians worked 8 months on scams
to profit themselves via the relief package.
DO RESEARCH …Looks and Words are deceiving.
MSM isn't reporting these people's dirty deeds.
Yellen received 800K from Hedge fund in the Gamestop scandal… Yup …Another crook in the non-elected Gov. Why am I not surprised?
Wow the ignorance! The federal reserve is no more federal then federal express! Zeitgeist
#$200.00 SS Stimulas and Multiple Stimulas Checks
She looks like she would have a major freshness problem. Similar to that fish and potato strain that Amy Klobuchar suffers from.
Taxes will brake the us ..thats sad
She is absolutely ignorant. What a joke!
“Act big, †so where does the money come from?
She is proposing a ponzie scheme, let the future generation(s) pay for our luxury today.
Why are the banks like Bank of America charging so much interest rates at this time on credit cards 18.9 to 19% interest. It doesn't make sense. This definitely needs to be looked into.
the the the the the the the the the the
Government must "act big" so our kids and grandkids can pay for it all after we die. Dammit, Janet!
Luke I am your father…
Systemic Racism within Banking and Credit systems, overall limits the USA GDP full potential within the international markets, this is very unfavorable in Central Banking where at times overall, the bottom line is what matters at the end of the day. Bridging the wealth gap amongst black's and whites actually makes the "Central Banking a viable component to economic recovery and favorable when currency is being printed at -0.25% interest rates, the Treasury should take advantage of these rate's offered by the Central Banker's to repair and provide reparation banking to blacks to bridge the wealth gap which is overall hurting Americas international GDP%'s. Banking can be very lucrative when "Access To Capital" becomes systemically accessible to all, by limiting wealth gap banking practices. "Wealth Gap Banking Practices" should be FEDERALLY BANNED. FDIC insurance should be revoked to all USA financial institutions that does not participate in Black Reparation Banking Act of 2020. Currently "renamed" The FREEDMAN'S BANK TREASURY BUILDING, may or may not be able to implement Reparation Banking to blacks directly, without involving FDIC insured banks that does not want to participate in Reparation Banking for blacks and small black owned business applicant's
They smiled, while people suffered. I do apologize. I am not like that!
HELP THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!!! LETS LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES WE HAVE DONE IN 2008 IN THE GREAT RECESSION
Trump, to his credit, allowed Democrats to run things as they wished. If the Dems wanted to lock down a state or city, I know of no case where Trump interfered. If you know of one, please mention it and be specific. For those who care, I'm registered non partisan. Yes, I vote issues and not for a particular party.

us military nurse goes undercover in new york hospital and wow, what an eye opener. hospitals giving people covid and killing them with the ventilators the government is so desperately seeking. wonder why the news agencies aren't reporting on this.
Yellen is highly qualified and she has an excellent track record. That being said, she already served as Fed Chairwomen. The big problem is too many incumbents. Washington needs new people with a fresh view. It would be nice to see a non incumbent to get a chance at this office. It's not a major thing. It simply would be nice to see.
She’s one smart Gramma…I’ve always thought that grandmothers should run the world,it would be a much nicer place.
We need your BEST !!!
Very solid choice: As in cast concrete buttress, enabling the banksters. Keeping the revolving "employment" door open between banking and government regulation agencies and rating agencies.
âÂÂÂÂï¸ÂÂ🇺🇸🦅TRUMP2024🦅🇺🇸âÂÂÂÂï¸ÂÂ
So why is it so long to give money to people. It’s easy to say your going to do something. Out of sight out of mind. I bet you’ll see protesters bc your looking like a government that says, let them eat cake !!!! All of you have stupid arguments as though people can wait . Quit talking and work.
Stop spitting on the streets, it's disgusting.
I am all for engagement of older people but really these are so old and frail, why are they there?
Who thinks Coronavirus is more about control than the virus itselfm
Yellen's main job is to reassure Wall St. that they have nothing to fear from Biden.
She and Bernie will make a great team
